Any examples? Im still lost.

Try this code in your Button's On Click event (tab):

tblPages = Application.GetPages()

for i,v in tblPages do
	Audio.Stop(CHANNEL_BACKGROUND)
end

But, I believe the power in this little code chunk would be for the stopping of all sounds in the project! Here below I have created a function (the code can be "called" (which means "used)) by just one line of code then in the rest of your program. Now, you usually want to put functions (that you create) in the Global Functions section.

Here's that new function code:

function fnStopAllSounds()
	tblPages = Application.GetPages()
		for i,v in tblPages do
			Audio.Stop(CHANNEL_ALL)
		end
end

Now, to use it (call the function) you just add this line of code to the On Click of your Button Object, for example:

fnStopAllSounds()

Oh, not sure what I was going to do with that function but it looks like I got my wires crossed, sorry.

If you are using the Audio actions then try this line of code, sorry again:

Audio.Stop(CHANNEL_ALL) -- All sounds

Audio.Stop(CHANNEL_BACKGROUND) -- Just the Background sound

I believe I had "function creation on the brain" due to rhosk's post linking to functions. D'oh!

I too misinterpreted because of the original subject line. Intrigued has nailed the answer for you, sorry for the confusion.
